Harvest Pumpkin Dip

I just made this pumpkin dip for our play date in the morning at our house. I have apples, pears and graham crackers to serve with it, and it is very yummy. (If our Kroger wasn't so crappy I would have gotten the graham cracker sticks instead). If you like pumpkin stuff, try this! I would back off some of the powdered sugar, so it is not quite as rich.



from Taste of Home

Ingredients:

1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
2 cups confectioners’ sugar
1 can (15 ounces) solid-pack pumpkin
3 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and confectioners’ sugar. (Picky Apple note: Be sure to follow this step instead of just dumping everything in the bowl like I did!) Gradually add the pumpkin, pie spice, vanilla and ginger; beat until smooth. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. Serve with fruit. Refrigerate leftovers.
